    HS-125 series I could probably do but it’s gonna take some time. @SyntheticL

  • Falcon 6x 3.6 years ago

    In simple planes?! Noooooooo. Aside from the fact that it’s SP it really is considering how long it actually takes for TR’s to be effective. It’s not far off. @Kaos

  • Falcon 6x 3.6 years ago

    It’s a trade off. Basically you’re not going to need it for more than 1.5 seconds of full spool up so it’s pop on wait for it to spool up to max N1 and kick it off. @Kaos

  • Falcon 6x 3.6 years ago

    I don’t do airliners. Sorry my guy. @SyntheticL

    Didn’t even tag me. What are you doing my guy. Tis a bomb design. @ACEPILOT109

    Annnnnddd ya stole my cockpit. Lovely.

    Personally I like the EX version better. There’s more to come. @Solarisaircraft

    Why would you possibly think deployed TR’s and speed brakes along with flaps would work. Flaps aren’t meant to slow the aircraft down. In terms of legitimate flight physics they’re meant to increase high pressure under the bottom of the aircraft which displaces more lift which allows the aircraft to land slower. In simple planes it creates positive pitch tendencies because slow flight physics are kinda fundamentally broken but they do help with slow flight in SP as well. You never and I mean never in either SP or in real world flight deploy your flaps only when you’re on the ground. Tradiationally they’re meant to be deployed dozens of miles away from the airport with heavy body airframes. First slats are deployed, then 2-5 degrees flaps, 10-15 degrees, then 30-40 degrees flaps. All of which lets the aircraft travel at slower more controlled speeds while the slow and incremental deployment does not unstablize the flight dynamic of the aircraft. Speed brakes are TR’s especially only usually only deployed on the ground because of how much they upset the flight dynamic. As for speed brakes, sure. It’s fine if they’re deployed in flight but you definitely don’t want to kill off lift in flight in coalition with flap deployment which is what speed brakes will do. In all reality find a way to use an activator group to turn off the primary flight power plants and turn on an AUX power plant facing in the opposite direction of usual travel. As for speed brakes keep them pair with the brake action. Flaps TR’s and speed brakes should always be untethered from each other in every single occasion.

  • Fairchild A-10E Thunderbolt II (Mild fixes) 4.0 years ago

    Oh my guy. Trying to pump out your design with a few fixes and just want emphasize the design is yours. Liked it enough I figured I would give it some love @UFNNICF5TF

  • SkyWolf Muskie 450 4.1 years ago

    Think you could shorten the fuselage length? Perhaps by moving the firewall back just before the fuselage?

  • CT-370HP Demo 4.9 years ago

    More than aware of the lack of ailerons. Look at the Beechjet's or the Mitsubishi MU-2 use of spoilerons to attain a full wing of flap for overall lower ref speeds. That what I’m trying to accomplish without the inherent parasitic drag of spoilerons. It’s by no means an aerobat. My time flying a piper malibu irl has given me a pretty decent reference point for performance characteristics to expect in this aircraft category and so far this is spot on in terms of maneuverability. If I was building an aerobat it would be more competent in roll characteristics but it’s 6 place short range passenger aircraft. @marcox43

  • Sea Holt-Mk2 5.1 years ago

    STEVE HOLT!

  • Sakur 15rxi 5.4 years ago

    Yep @Thebossrevolution101

  • Guess the plane! 5.5 years ago

    Citation XLS.

  • Sakur 6Xrms 5.5 years ago

    I am camroncs. @Hooded

  • SAKUR 13xrm 5.6 years ago

    Yeah that sounds about right. Where is the asymmetrical drag located?@LiamW

  • SAKUR 13xrm 5.6 years ago

    K @CruzerBlade

  • SAKUR 13xrm 5.6 years ago

    No clue where that’s coming from. Shouldn’t be asymmetrical as the aircraft is directly mirrored. Don’t have and clue on that. @LiamW

  • H&S Simplex 500 5.7 years ago

    So this is the link I found. Died at oshkosh. I was there when it happened actually. Hit a row of military vehicles off to the side of the 18-36. Sad happening.

  • H&S Simplex 500 5.7 years ago

    Yeah let me see if I can find it. @Hyattorama

  • H&S Simplex 500 5.7 years ago

    You based this on a sonex jet. It’s a kit built coffee cup turbine aircraft. The man who designed the original died in a wreck in a sonex jet. @Hyattorama

  • H&S Simplex 500 5.7 years ago

    It’s a sonex jet. Irl it killed its creator.

  • F-35 B Fertilizer electricity 5.7 years ago

    Why in Sam hell are the mains mounted right under the vstabs?

  • RF-160CC 5.7 years ago

    Thanks broski. @MrSilverWolf

    Thanks broski. @MrSilverWolf

  • PZL-104 Wilga 2000 "Draco" 5.7 years ago

    This thing was a beast at oshkosh. Oh my god this thing flies like a champ.

  • SAKUR 1 5.7 years ago

    Sure dude. @TUA54

  • F A-23 5.7 years ago

    @TUA54 considering its not even remotely complete, no you cannot

  • F A-23 5.7 years ago

    @HakkeAirTech @LuciferOfPoland @TUA54 This was just uploaded to share the airframe with some buddies in a discord server. Not a serious build.

  • Fuelsage Cockpit 5.8 years ago

    Lol I remember because I still use the gear actuators I borrowed from one of your planes. @DeezDucks

  • Fuelsage Cockpit 5.8 years ago

    No it is. Camroncs is my old account. The Alta series cockpit came from @DeezDucks doesn’t look like type rebuilt it so much as just took it off. @Lovcio

  • Fuelsage Cockpit 5.8 years ago

    Fun fact. It was @deezducks cockpit.

  • SAKUR 4x 5.8 years ago

    Chill bud. Guy stole an airplane and didn’t hurt anyone. Guy went out how most pilots want to go out. I respect him. @Tazziedevil04

  • Quintin 4LS Bushmaster 5.8 years ago

    Not in this game. Although I’ve noticed slats prevent overloading the wing. Great for preventing accelerated stalls. Doesn’t necessarily help generate higher pressure for slower flight in game. That’s one of the things that bugs me. @Othawne

  • Quintin 4LS Bushmaster 5.8 years ago

    Just curious but would a passive slat system be possible to build for this cub. Would be even cooler if it could be implemented on a helio courier build.

  • Civil Air Patrol Cessna-172 5.8 years ago

    Do you know what oshkosh/Air venture is? @Jacobdaniel

  • Civil Air Patrol Cessna-172 5.8 years ago

    You guys like to give us crap about liquor up at the north 40, sometimes threading to confiscate it. We think it’s hilarious @Jacobdaniel

  • Civil Air Patrol Cessna-172 5.8 years ago

    Ah yes the beer police at oshkosh.

  • Sea Commander P-1000 5.9 years ago

    The original commander was designed a cargo aircraft. So I could see it. Rock on hoover.
